[Fink-devel] PDB last updated December 10th

It looks like the package database has not been updated for nearly a month: http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/ I don't think it's just the last-modified date: gtkwave has been updated to 3.3.29 in both 10.4 and 10.7 trees, but it still shows 3.3.28. http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/gtkwa

[Fink-devel] PDB giving incorrect results?

Hi there, I was wondering about something odd I noticed in the PDB today. Go look at , it says that 1.0.2 of wireshark is the latest version in the powerpc stable trees, but 0.99.5-1011 is the latest in the i386 trees. Why does it claim

[Fink-devel] PDB web interface

I've turned it off for now (browse.php and search.php return static text, editted directly on finch, back-end update script commented out in cron.d/pdb) We just don't have the power cap'n! Better to have the website itself and rsync and source-tarball masters working. Heck, even with the PDB search

Hi, I noticed some nice improvements on the pdb website recently. However right now they look very misformed. This is because the text in the description field is all put on one line, which can make the page very wide. All hard returns in that text are shown as /n. cheers, - Koen. --

Very strange, the PDB is now only showing packages that are NOT in the 10.2 tree - ie, the same packages that are on my "not yet moved" list like yorick, r-recommended, gnupg-egd. It is not showing any package that is in both trees. Max will you have time to update the PDB for 0.5.0a? -Ben

[Fink-devel] PDB suggestions

New PDB looks good. However I still think we need to special case the splitoffs from the big kde* bundle packages so they show up in different sections. For example all the splitoff packages from kdegames3 should show up in the "games" section. cervisia, from the kdesdk3 package, should show up

The developer community may have switched to 10.2, but is this true of the majority of Fink users? It is a good thing to push forward and not needlessly expend energies trying to maintain 10.1 versions of stuff - but we should recognise that for a fair time yet there will be a substantial 10.1 co

Let me suggest that if we are going to go for option 1, that the labels on the pdb web page make this clear, i.e., In 0.4.1-stable (10.1): In current-stable (10.2): In current-unstable (10.2): I also think that when we release 0.5.0, for some transition period we should include four lines

[Fink-devel] PDB & 10.2

So the PDB right now still displays information for the old package tree. So, we will want it to display data for the 10.2 tree in the future. the question is only, how do we want to go about this: 1) simply show the 10.2 package list instead of the 10.1 packages That's the simplest solution
